Hey all- I've brewed two 1-Gallon batches thusfar (my very first 2 brews ever). Both of these batches were kits from Brooklyn Brew Shop and had the packets of yeast provided to me, instructing me to use the entire packet when pitching.
Now I'm getting ready to brew a 1-Gallon stout recipe that's not a kit. I broke the recipe down from a 5-Gallon recipe and bought my grain bill. The yeast I'm using is Safale US-5, and the guy at the LHBS told me I only needed to pitch half of the packet and I could use the rest of the packet for my next 1-Gallon batch. Is this true? I don't want to under-pitch.
Thank you!
